OnePlus 2 is permanently discounted to $349/£249

If you’ve thought of buying a OnePlus 2, but the $389 price tag was a little too rich for you, today could be the day you have been waiting for. OnePlus announced a little earlier today that the OnePlus 2 will be permanently reduced in price to $349/£249/€345, giving a saving of $40/£40/€54. And, if you purchased the handset at the higher price in the last 15 days, don’t fret, OnePlus has promised to refund the difference.

Besides discounting the OnePlus 2, OnePlus will include a free StyleSwap ($27) or OnePlus X case with any OnePlus 2 or X purchase as part of its Valentine’s Day promotion. OnePlus X buyers can choose from either a Karbon or Rosewood case for their handset. On top of that, free shipping is included.

OnePlus recently dropped the 16GB variant of the OnePlus 2 handset from US and EU inventories, which means that the 64GB model is now just $20 more than what the 16GB variant was originally priced at.

If you were on the fence, is the price cut tempting enough for you to splash the cash? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below.
